DOI: 10.1007/s00300-017-2150-z
Abstract: In the advective realm of the seas, it is challenging to disentangle the role of regional and local processes on zooplankton populations. However, comparative studies of spatially separated zooplankton populations can provide valuable insights into… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.epsl.2019.02.030
Abstract: Abstract Neodymium (Nd) isotopes are a powerful proxy tool for reconstructing past changes in water mass mixing, but reliable application of this proxy requires constraints on past changes of source water compositions. A key region… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.margeo.2017.09.003
Abstract: Abstract Sediment cores from the south-eastern Nordic Seas simultaneously archive the variability of the Fennoscandian Ice Sheet (FIS), the British-Irish Ice Sheet (BIIS) and the regional oceanic conditions. This study aims to contribute to our… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.pocean.2021.102609
Abstract: Abstract The locations, times, and mechanisms by which heat and salt are transported through and within the Nordic Seas are discussed. The analysis is based on a regional, high resolution coupled sea ice-ocean numerical model,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1029/2019gl082110
Abstract: The meridional overturning circulation (MOC) decreases rapidly in subpolar and Nordic regions where the warm upper layer loses its buoyancy due to intense heat loss, sinks, and flows south. The major volume loss of the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41558-020-00941-3
Abstract: Warm water of subtropical origin flows northward in the Atlantic Ocean and transports heat to high latitudes. This poleward heat transport has been implicated as one possible cause of the declining sea-ice extent and increasing… read more here.

Characterizing the Local and Intense Water Cycle during a Cold Air Outbreak in the Nordic Seas
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2018 at "Monthly Weather Review"
DOI: 10.1175/mwr-d-18-0172.1
Abstract: Air masses in marine cold air outbreaks (CAOs) at high latitudes undergo a remarkable diabatic transformation because of the uptake of heat and moisture from the ocean surface, and the formation of precipitation. In this… read more here.
